With the audios, you can simply listen to the instructions while you're cooking and follow along every step of the way.

Another resource you can tap into for finding top restaurant recipes are the cooking magazines. The articles in these cooking magazines oftentimes give you the ingredients, detailed instructions, and pictures to follow along with through each step.

The final resource (and my favorite resource) to look for top restaurant recipes online is videos. Watching videos of how to cook recipes online is great in that you can pause, scroll forward or go back to the part you may have questions on anytime. It is an easy way to actually see and listen to how to cook the dishes you going for.

There are various video directories out there today where you can search for quality videos, but the biggest and the most popular one is no doubt Youtube.com. Now owned by Google, you can simply go the www.youtube.com and type in search terms like 'how to cook ______' and you'll find tons of videos waiting for you to explore.
